Does anyone know how to get rid of “New Head-fier” status? I joined head-fi in 2015 and it’s still that status... I reached 15 posts, wonder what the problem is
I know it’s a wrong thread, if there’s a problem i’ll erase
Your new status will automatically change when you reach 100 posts. It's the number of posts that matters, not the length of time since joining Head-Fi.

As you're posting here, I take it you have experience with Grados?? :)

Duh! I now realise I read and liked that post of yours!! :deadhorse:
Quite a collection you have had, guess you liked the PS-1 best of all. Hope you re-acquire a pair one day....

Here's the song I've been blasting this afternoon:

Bought to join the Grado club tomorrow. Picked up a used pair of Grado Whites.

Welcome to the club! Let us know how they sound. I've yet to come across any.

So I've been living with my new RS2e headphones for a few days. These are my first Grado's. I've owned many flagship headphones including the HD800 and the T1. At first I was having a hard time getting comfortable with the supplied pads. I wear glasses and that didn't help with on ear headphones. Then I got some cheap open cell foam replacement pads that are shaped exactly like the original but a bit softer. I am in heaven with the fit and the sound. These pads did add a slight touch of warmth over the original harder pads but it is worth the trade off for comfort. The amazing thing about these headphones is their transparency and tone. I would say they are remarkably close to the Hifiman He 500's I used to own in sound quality but at a tiny fraction of the weight. I can wear these Grado's all day the He 500 30 minutes and I was done. These pads only cost about $2 a set. The original are slightly better sounding but not worth the pain. I should mention that I listen to mostly classical music as well as some female vocals.
